Samsung postpones Galaxy S25 Edge launch

Earlier this year, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S25 Edge, which was expected to be the company's thinnest smartphone. It was scheduled to launch in April, but it appears that the launch has been postponed. It could now launch in May instead of this month.

It is being reported by ETNews (via @Jukanlosreve) that Samsung has decided to postpone the launch of the Galaxy S25 Edge. The company planned to launch it in April but has now decided to push the launch to May or June. Apparently, Samsung has conveyed this information to the three telecom carriers that will sell the ultra-slim phone in South Korea.

Yesterday, we also received information about the delay of the launch but we decided not to publish the news considering that it could be an April Fools joke. The report claims that this delay is not due to quality shortcomings. Instead, Samsung may have made the changes to the launch schedule after considering the recent death of the head of Samsung DX, JH Han.

The company will reportedly not hold a big launch event for the Galaxy S25 Edge. Instead, the device will be announced at an online event where the phone's price and release date will be revealed. Reports claim that the 256GB version of the Galaxy S25 Edge will be priced at around KRW 1.5 million (~$1,023).

The Galaxy S25 Edge is said to feature a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2x screen, a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, a 200MP+12MP dual-camera system on the rear, a 12MP front-facing camera, and a 3,900mAh battery. It could be available in three colors: black, blue, and silver.

Samsung is said to be planning to manufacture around 3 million units of the Galaxy S25 Edge. Since the company plans to ship around 37 million Galaxy S25 series phones, the Galaxy S25 Edge could make up around 10% of those total shipments.
